Do you have power?! Because we don’t! 😅 These storms have been WILD lately!

If you’re a breastfeeding or pumping mama, you may be wondering what to do with your breastmilk during a power outage…

A few things to remember:

🧊 Keep your fridge/freezer doors closed as much as possible!
❄️ Your refrigerator stays cold for about 4 hours after the power goes out
❄️ A full freezer can stay cold for about 48 hours
🍼 If frozen milk still has ice crystals, it can be refrozen

For the most up-to-date recommendations, check out the CDC’s breastmilk storage guidelines.

Remember- don’t panic and toss your stash! Feel free to send me a message. I’m happy to answer any questions you have!

Stay safe, mamas - we got this ⛈️🤍
